Great Expectations: A BabyLit® Occupations Primer introduces little ones to Dicken’s famous characters as well as their jobs.
As with all BabyLit® primers, Great Expectations gets super simplified for 0- to 3-year-olds. Don’t expect a storyline, just broad topics inspired by the source material. In this case, jobs. It’s a fun book with charming illustrations that kids will love. I know that because my own kid enjoyed the series when she was little.
